Letting go

When you pray lay aside thoughtsthat peck at the body and dive after soulsfears that give birth to needsconcerns that lay ambush to the futuremistakes that make poison of the pastWhen you pray lay aside thoughtsOf where you are and what you are doingof your struggle to walk the Chosen Patheven your hopes to leave behinda few final steps in the sandThen pull from under youwhat little ground you stand onand falllike a featherinto the hand of GodRest there so lightly so very very lightlythat when you think about ityou will feel no longer where you endand God begins.
